looking back

Today, since I am trying to get over being sick, thought it would be good to look through some of my old blog posts.  My blog is like my diary, it has so many of my life experiences and emotions.  It doesn't seem that long ago when I started this blog, and I hope I am helping others through this blog also.  That was my intent.  But as I look back, I think it has helped me more. It has helped me cope with stresses in my life and grow from them.  I can see where I was and where I am now.  I had my birthday last week.  Birthday's are always reminding me of growing older, which we all seem to try not to do.  But with getting older, hopefully I am getting wiser.  I have a new responsibility, teaching the younger generation.  I remember some of my mentors in my life and how they have taught me and now the baton has been passed.
This doesn't mean that I will not make mistakes along the way, as we are all learning something each day.  I just want to make a difference in one person's life, that would be enough.
So just some advice that I have learned:
-always listen to your gut feeling- it is usually right
-never stop learning
-close your mouth and listen to people
-wake up smiling, it will make your day better

Verse today is from Ephesians 3:20,
"Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us,"
Love to all,
